Soory guys, won't be able to make it. Had laser eye surgery(highly recommend to anyone wearing glasses) during the week and my eye are still adjusting.

Ah, kick ass!

I was looking at getting this done last month. The $5200 price tag is just a little rich for me at this point.

Have fun today guys!

It was a great drive and everyone seemed to enjoy and behave themselves.

What a way to spend a couple of hours on a sunday; driving along some twisty roads with a bunch of similarly minded people.

We only had one car injury which was a few lost wheel nuts and a sheared stud, meanwhile i got a bit out of shape around a tight corner (owning a GTR doesn't make you a better driver), but other than that it was a incident free event.

It was good to meet up with everyone and see some new faces, we had about 10 cars for the cruise. Hopefully someone can organise another cruise before the SAU track day and we can get even more people to attend.

was a great day out. i coulda' had more fun if my car wasn't f*cked. i was surprised i was keeping up the way i did.... fun was had by most, except for maybe eebl and would definately do it again.

BIG THANKS to Donnan for organising the event which went off without a hitch. well done son... ;)

A sunday drive is really easy to organise, just look at my first post, that is all i did to organise the day!

Maybe someone else could have a crack at it. Just figure out a date, time and a route that is interesting. Try not to change the details much or try to keep them secret as people flake pretty quickly if things change too much or find it difficult to find out what is going on.

Hope to see you all soon!

    • So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.
    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking
